[Guide] How-to change your frequency bands (No-root required) - Moto Z Play Guides, News, & Discussion

Hey, this has been mentioned before on the forums (https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z-play/how-to/enabling-basebands-mzp-qualcomm-phone-t3684962) as well as in other Qualcomm sections but the links are dead and the author was not responding. So I cleaned up the guide and re-uploaded the proper files because I recently had to do this when I switched my carrier, so here it goes...
I've simplified the download process into one "pack". The pack consists of four propretary file folders that are all required for this process:
MzTool
QPST 2.7
Qcomm USB Drivers
Motorola USB Drivers
Step 1:
Download the "MotorolaPack.7z" and extract to desktop.
Step 2:
Install the Qcomm & Motorola drivers.
Your device manager should look like this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",
"lightbox_thumbnails": "Thumbnails",
"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
Step 3:
Connect your phone to your PC and boot your phone into fastboot mode and select QCOM from the menu.
Step 4:
The phone will boot up as normal.
You're going to want to open 'QPST Configuration'.
You should see your device like this:
Step 5:
Now open up RF NV Manager and in the top left corner of the program hit 'Setting' > 'Comport'
Now go to 'File' > 'Read from phone'
Once it is finished reading, scroll down to line '1877' <-- this is where the phones frequency config is stored
Step 6:
Open MzTool and select desired bands.
Once finished the decimal in the lower right corner is the number you 'Write NV'

LTE Band support
Wish this mzTool had LTE bands as well could have enabled more bands

There is a way but you have to be rooted:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=56577252&postcount=455
It's essentially the exact same process (I have not tried) but may need to modify OnePlus patch file

I am looking to use this for my Sharp SH-01J phone, substituting the Motorola drivers for Sharp ones, but I can't seem to get the results.
When installing the Qcomm drivers & restarting, I don't see the entry in DevMgr.
Also, I can't seem to understand how to install the USB Drivers for the Sharp phone either.

You might get some false positives in AntiVirus. Http.exe gives Norton a WS.Reputation1.Threat, which is what a lot of android toolkits get. This file acts as a web server so it is classed as malicious to some anti- virus programs.

so i am not able to enter recovery and even into rom what to do??
Please Help ME
It seems a problem with Windows rather than with your phone.
First of all don't worry, there are very high chances that you will recover the phone in working state. I worked for over a year with MTK devices, they brick very easily but it's also easy to unbrick.
It's a signature error, not a driver error. I remember Windows has somewhere the option to disable signature checking for drivers. Disable it, then after installing this driver you can re-enable it if you want.
I assume you are able to proceed from this step on, once phone is recognized by PC. If I'm wrong, feel free to ask
To Install Driver without Signature error.
This will Help u to install driver without signature.
What to do:
1. Hold down the Windows key on your keyboard and press the letter C to open the Charm menu, then click the gear icon (Settings).
2.Click More PC Settings.
3. Click General.
4. Under Advanced Startup, click Restart Now.
NOTE: In Windows 8.1, the ‘Restart Now’ button has moved to ‘PC Setting -> Update & Recovery -> Recovery.’
5. After restarting, click Troubleshoot.
6. Click Advanced Options.
7. Click Windows Startup Settings.
8. Click Restart.
9. After restarting your computer a second time, choose Disable driver signature enforcement from the list by typing the number 7 on your keyboard.
10. After restarting, you will be able to install the drivers normally; however, Windows will display a warning message. When the warning appears, click Install this driver software anyway.
You are now complete. I hope this will help you. Good Luck..

Sometimes we need to transfer files to our device while we are in recovery mode. When we forget to copy the zip we were going to flash, when we are installing a
GPE based ROM (we must format /data and erase all files), to transfer a backup... ect. In many cases we need this function.
The purpose of this tutorial is to make our PC succesfully recognize our Moto G as a storage device being in TWRP recovery.
Many users have reported that their devices are not being recognized.​
Requirements:
-Have installe the last TWRP recovery version.
-Have installed ADB drivers in PC. You can try this ones Universal ADB Drivers or Motorola Mobile Drivers 64 bits
-USB data cable.
-PC runnig Windows 7, 8, 8.1 or 10 (can work with older versions).​Steps: Sorry for spanish images, if you can provide me english captures would be great.
1) Boot into recovery mode and connect to PC with USB data cable.
2) Being completely sure your device is not being recognized, otherwise this tutorial will be totally useless to you.
3) Open Control Panel and click on Hardware and Sound
4) Go to Device Manager.
5) Look for 'Android Device' or 'Android Phone' or any related name, open the list, rigth-click on the device and click on 'Update driver software'.
6) Now click on the second option.
7) Now click on the option below:
8) Make sure 'ADB composite device' is there and click next.
9) Once this is donde, reboot your PC and it will be in capacity to recognize your device as a storage device while you are in TWRP recovery. We can freely transfer files.​---------------------------------------------------

I only ask you 2 things.....Do a firmware upgrade or root the device.
The main problem is the radio application. While I have English as my primary language, the radio only holds Polish and does not have a good signal.
Please Help me
any help?
Look for this instruction in 4pda.ru forum https://4pda.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=936535&st=11880
Easy! For some reason, it is not described in detail and simply here.
I will try:
- download our scatter file to the computer (laptop);
- Download FlashTool with SP_Driver_v2.0 (firewood) and install on the computer (laptop);
- Download SuperSU.zip and throw in the root of the body;
- Download Android Terminal and install on the body;
- Download also TWRP, this one came up to me, the rest mirrors;
- rename TWRP to recovery.img - this is important!
- we throw recovery.img next to our scatter file;
- open FlashTool, load our scatter file, see that the checkmark is only on recovery! ;
- further according to the scheme as described on the forum - click Download, connect the switched off body and wait for success!
Success will be, of course, if the firewood is already standing and the dad-dad cord is whole.
- Now you need to reboot into recovery. to do this, turn on the body, launch Android Terminal, give the reboot recovery command;
- from TWRP we put zip SuperSU;
- ALL! We reboot and rejoice.
I hope it turned out simple and clear. Good luck!
